Soy Sauce!

Soy Sauce! celebrates the iconic condiment, ingredient, and go-to Asian staple. Painted with real soy sauce mixed with watercolors and told in musical and bouncy text, this imaginative debut-the only one on the subject-showcases the power of culture, friendship, and delicious food.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description
A joyful picture book perfect for kids and foodies of all ages, Soy Sauce! mixes lyrical text, vibrant watercolors, and real soy sauce used as paint into a stunning debut and an imaginative celebration of the iconic kitchen staple and the magical way food connects family and friends across the world.

Salty, savory, rich, and even sweet, soy sauce is as fascinating to make as it is delicious to eat!

Luan makes a classic Chinese soy sauce. Haru uses his own recipe at his family's traditional Japanese brewery. And Yoo-mi's Korean soy sauce features special ingredients to make it spicy and sweet.

With unique ingredients that reflect different Asian cultures, and a brewing process that can take years, even decades, soy sauce holds deep meaning and flavorful history in every drop.
